Tom Waits Alice LP

Alice has been called Wait's long-lost masterpiece. Originally performed as
an opera directed by Robert Wilson for Hamburg's Thalia Theatre in 1992, but
left unrecorded until 2001. The show ran for a year and a half using an unusual
orchestra designed by Waits to underpin the songs co-written with his wife
Kathleen Brennen. Rather than being directly based on Lewis Carroll's Alice In
Wonderland and Through The Looking Glass, the Waits-Brennen Alice takes
inspiration from feelings remembered and dreams recalled after reading the
books. Released simultaneously with Blood Money.
